اَلتَّثْنِيَة 30

١ 1 «وَمَتَى أَتَتْ عَلَيْكَ كُلُّ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ، ٱلْبَرَكَةُ وَٱللَّعْنَةُ، ٱللَّتَانِ جَعَلْتُهُمَا قُدَّامَكَ، فَإِنْ رَدَدْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَيْهِمْ،

Now when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse which I have put before you, if the thought of them comes back to your minds, when you are living among the nations where the Lord your God has sent you,

٢ 2 وَرَجَعْتَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، وَسَمِعْتَ لِصَوْتِهِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ ٱلْيَوْمَ، أَنْتَ وَبَنُوكَ، بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكَ وَبِكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ،

And your hearts are turned again to the Lord your God, and you give ear to his word which I give you today, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul:

٣ 3 يَرُدُّ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ سَبْيَكَ وَيَرْحَمُكَ، وَيَعُودُ فَيَجْمَعُكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ بَدَّدَكَ إِلَيْهِمِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

Then the Lord will have pity on you, changing your fate, and taking you back again from among all the nations where you have been forced to go.

٤ 4 إِنْ يَكُنْ قَدْ بَدَّدَكَ إِلَى أَقْصَاءِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ يَجْمَعُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ يَأْخُذُكَ،

Even if those who have been forced out are living in the farthest part of heaven, the Lord your God will go in search of you, and take you back;

٥ 5 وَيَأْتِي بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي ٱمْتَلَكَهَا آبَاؤُكَ فَتَمْتَلِكُهَا، وَيُحْسِنُ إِلَيْكَ وَيُكَثِّرُكَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ آبَائِكَ.

Placing you again in the land of your fathers as your heritage; and he will do you good, increasing you till you are more in number than your fathers were.

٦ 6 وَيَخْتِنُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ قَلْبَكَ وَقَلْبَ نَسْلِكَ، لِكَيْ تُحِبَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ وَمِنْ كُلِّ نَفْسِكَ لِتَحْيَا.

And the Lord your God will give to you and to your seed a circumcision of the heart, so that, loving him with all your heart and all your soul, you may have life.

٧ 7 وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱللَّعَنَاتِ عَلَى أَعْدَائِكَ، وَعَلَى مُبْغِضِيكَ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدُوكَ.

And the Lord your God will put all these curses on those who are against you, and on your haters who put a cruel yoke on you.

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَعُودُ تَسْمَعُ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَتَعْمَلُ بِجَمِيعِ وَصَايَاهُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ،

And you will again give ear to the voice of the Lord, and do all his orders which I have given you today.

٩ 9 فَيَزِيدُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ خَيْرًا فِي كُلِّ عَمَلِ يَدِكَ، فِي ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةِ بَهَائِمِكَ وَثَمَرَةِ أَرْضِكَ. لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَرْجِعُ لِيَفْرَحَ لَكَ بِٱلْخَيْرِ كَمَا فَرِحَ لِآبَائِكَ،

And the Lord your God will make you fertile in all good things, blessing the work of your hands, and the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your cattle, and the fruit of your land: for the Lord will have joy in you, as he had in your fathers:

١٠ 10 إِذَا سَمِعْتَ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةَ فِي سِفْرِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ هَذَا. إِذَا رَجَعْتَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكَ وَبِكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ.

If you give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, keeping his orders and his laws which are recorded in this book of the law, and turning to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

١١ 11 «إِنَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ ٱلَّتِي أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ لَيْسَتْ عَسِرَةً عَلَيْكَ وَلَا بَعِيدَةً مِنْكَ.

For these orders which I have given you today are not strange and secret, and are not far away.

١٢ 12 لَيْسَتْ هِيَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ حَتَّى تَقُولَ: مَنْ يَصْعَدُ لِأَجْلِنَا إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَيَأْخُذُهَا لَنَا وَيُسْمِعُنَا إِيَّاهَا لِنَعْمَلَ بِهَا؟

They are not in heaven, for you to say, Who will go up to heaven for us and give us knowledge of them so that we may do them?

١٣ 13 وَلَا هِيَ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْبَحْرِ حَتَّى تَقُولَ: مَنْ يَعْبُرُ لِأَجْلِنَا ٱلْبَحْرَ وَيَأْخُذُهَا لَنَا وَيُسْمِعُنَا إِيَّاهَا لِنَعْمَلَ بِهَا؟

And they are not across the sea, for you to say, Who will go over the sea for us and give us news of them so that we may do them?

١٤ 14 بَلِ ٱلْكَلِمَةُ قَرِيبَةٌ مِنْكَ جِدًّا، فِي فَمِكَ وَفِي قَلْبِكَ لِتَعْمَلَ بِهَا.

But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may do it.

١٥ 15 «اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ جَعَلْتُ ٱلْيَوْمَ قُدَّامَكَ ٱلْحَيَاةَ وَٱلْخَيْرَ، وَٱلْمَوْتَ وَٱلشَّرَّ،

See, I have put before you today, life and good, and death and evil;

١٦ 16 بِمَا أَنِّي أَوْصَيْتُكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنْ تُحِبَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ وَتَسْلُكَ فِي طُرُقِهِ وَتَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ لِكَيْ تَحْيَا وَتَنْمُوَ، وَيُبَارِكَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكَهَا.

In giving you orders today to have love for the Lord your God, to go in his ways and keep his laws and his orders and his decisions, so that you may have life and be increased, and that the blessing of the Lord your God may be with you in the land where you are going, the land of your heritage.

١٧ 17 فَإِنِ ٱنْصَرَفَ قَلْبُكَ وَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ، بَلْ غَوَيْتَ وَسَجَدْتَ لِآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَعَبَدْتَهَا،

But if your heart is turned away and your ear is shut, and you go after those who would make you servants and worshippers of other gods:

١٨ 18 فَإِنِّي أُنْبِئُكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنَّكُمْ لَا مَحَالَةَ تَهْلِكُونَ. لَا تُطِيلُ ٱلْأَيَّامَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ عَابِرٌ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ لِكَيْ تَدْخُلَهَا وَتَمْتَلِكَهَا.

I give witness against you this day that destruction will certainly be your fate, and your days will be cut short in the land where you are going, the land of your heritage on the other side of Jordan.

١٩ 19 أُشْهِدُ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلسَّمَاءَ وَٱلْأَرْضَ. قَدْ جَعَلْتُ قُدَّامَكَ ٱلْحَيَاةَ وَٱلْمَوْتَ. ٱلْبَرَكَةَ وَٱللَّعْنَةَ. فَٱخْتَرِ ٱلْحَيَاةَ لِكَيْ تَحْيَا أَنْتَ وَنَسْلُكَ،

Let heaven and earth be my witnesses against you this day that I have put before you life and death, a blessing and a curse: so take life for yourselves and for your seed:

٢٠ 20 إِذْ تُحِبُّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ وَتَسْمَعُ لِصَوْتِهِ وَتَلْتَصِقُ بِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ حَيَاتُكَ وَٱلَّذِي يُطِيلُ أَيَّامَكَ لِكَيْ تَسْكُنَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا.

In loving the Lord your God, hearing his voice and being true to him: for he is your life and by him will your days be long: so that you may go on living in the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
